Julian "Buzz" Kilman (born August 19, 1944) is an American, Chicago based, radio personality. ==Radio career== He started in radio as the public service director for WBUS-FM, "The Magic Bus" in Miami Beach, Florida. Kilman remained there until station management discovered many of his late night interviews were spoofs. In 1974, he was at WSHE in Ft. Lauderdale, where he did morning news and a weekend public service talk show that had many comedic spoofs. On April Fool's Day, 1980, he went to WLUP-FM in Chicago and did news for ''The Steve Dahl Show''. After Dahl was fired in 1981, Kilman did news for a series of morning personalities until he teamed up with Jonathon Brandmeier in 1983 on WLUP. As newsman and sidekick, Kilman broadcast with Brandmeier for 14 years on the Loop and AM-1000. Buzz became the morning man at the Loop for one year when Brandmeier left the station during a contract dispute in 1997. Kilman moved to WCKG in January, 1999 to rejoin Brandmeier. Stalled contract negotiations between CBS and Brandmeier in January, 2001 caused Kilman to do the mid-day show alone, and thus the ''Temporary Buzz Kilman Show'' was born. Shortly thereafter, Wendy Snyder was brought on as a co-host for the now temporary-less ''Buzz Kilman Show''. The show culminated with the "Blobus Festivus" outdoor music and variety show. On April 1, 2002, the duo moved to afternoons as sidekicks for the Steve Dahl show, replacing Joy Masada and Dave McBride. Wendy's contract was not renewed in the winter of 2007. On November 5, 2007, Buzz followed Steve Dahl to WJMK as they became the new morning team.〔(The Steve Dahl Show on 104.3 JACK FM )〕 This lasted until December 5, 2008 when Dahl announced the end of his show. As of September 6, 2012, Buzz is back on the air with Jonathon Brandmeier on WGN.〔()〕 Buzz has continued with Brandmeier, now on Westwood One's nationwide talk radio lineup on 100-plus affiliates, including airing on WLS-AM in Chicago. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Buzz Kilman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
